Ajai Vasudev’s Pakalum Paathiravum is set to release on streaming. The Malayalam thriller was a remake of the Kannada film Aa Karaala Ratri (2018) which in turn is an adaptation of a play. The film was released in theatres earlier this year and starred Kunchacko Boban.
The film revolves around events that take place after a wildlife photographer seeks shelter with a family. Set against the backdrop of Maoist threat, the thriller takes place in over a day with plenty of twists and turns. The film had opened to mixed reviews and had flopped at the Box Office.
The film also stars Rajisha Vijayan, Gokulam Gopalan, and Manoj KU in prominent roles. Pakalum Paathiravum is set to have its streaming premiere on Zee5 on April 28.
